I am utilizing the reminder feature in Airtable for the first time. I’ve created a few “test” CRM’s to see how the feature would work for me. Out of 5 “test” CRM’s, only 1 gave me the info I needed. I have attached a picture of what I want vs. what I’m getting. Any idea why one would work and the others do not?  

Every time I expand a record, the activity feed panel resets to its system default view of “Comments only” instead of remembering my last selection or having an option to change the default per user. For teams that rely heavily on tracking changes, this means manually switching to "All Activity" or "Revision History" on every single record open - which adds up fast.A simple "remember my last selection" or a setting under personal preferences would go a long way.Would love to see this added. It seems like a small lift with a solid quality-of-life payoff. Anyone else finding this frustrating?Has anyone found a workaround in the meantime? And would others find this useful? If so, please upvote. Happy to submit this as formal feedback to Airtable if there's interest.

I have two tables:InvoicesTime Invoices has a project, start date and end date.Time has a project, start date and hours. I’m trying to find all the time records between the Invoice start and end dates for a project and assign them to the invoice. But when I try to find the time AT only allows static choices, not dynamic. How can I make this work?

Any plans to allow the admins to adjust the user data fields similar to how the bases are configured with the ability to select and hide/delete fields we want to see by users depending on the use case? Or use a field selection similar to Service Now’s field selection? Currently what I see on the Admin panel is very limited and I don’t see the ability to adjust (add or delete)

The recent mobile update killed my dashboard. I use an iPhone 17 Pro running iOS 26.5.   My dashboard looks right, but I no longer can drill down into the underlying data in the tiles.  It works perfectly on my laptop just not the mobile.   when I click on the tile I just get an empty box instead of the data on my phone.  I put in a support ticket but I need to be able to access this on my phone as I'm in the middle of finalizing sales.  Was just getting ready to upgrade to paid account then this happened.  They said since it still works on my laptop that it isn't the free vs paid account issue.  anyone else having problems?   

Hi All, A couple of weeks ago, we were provided with a quote from sales for the enterrprise edition so we could have our data stored in Europe. After telling them that we’d go ahead with the subscription, the sales person told me that they now needed to get approval. Over one week later, i am still waiting for this approval. I find it very strange. Has anyone else had this issue? What i don’t understand is why they would give a quote and at not have approval for it?  

I’m coming from an Asana background and am trying to build a project management system in Airtable.

Hello,We are using a script that runs in the Scripting extension - it was developed by a consultant and has been working 100% for many years, so I hesitate to touch it. But now, I have a new requirement that this button can only be clicked if a specific checkbox field has been checked.How can I limit this button to match my new trigger? Thanks in advance - scripting is definitely not my forte. 

Hey Community,Just seeing if there’s still a need for this kind of array function in formula fields?It would compare 2 arrays and remove the values that appear in both.I submitted the suggestion through the idea form, but when I realized it’s an old community idea I thought it might need more feedback/attention.My use cases would be product gap reports in my CRM and non-openers in my email campaigns. What would your use cases be? This is how it works with javascript:const arrA = [1, 2, 3, 4]; const arrB = [3, 4, 5, 6];const difference = arrA.filter(x => !arrB.includes(x)); //Output: [1, 2] Here’s the OP:  

Hey everyone, it’s 2026. We’ve all asked this many times before.But I thought with a new year half way over, people may have seen new tools.Is there a solid mobile-first front-end platform that plays nicely with Airtable? Interfaces is desktop-focused. Softr went backwards. Many others are out of date or just replicate interfaces.Has anyone seen anything new?

Hi community, When exporting a table view to csv, I am having rows get broken up and put on different lines. In the example, in AT, Row 26 is one line. When exported to CSV, the row breaks off at a certain field and goes to the next line. I have tried the download using the web app as well as the desktop app, and opening the csv in Excel and numbers, and get the same problem every time. Any ideas what is happening here? I can’t see any weird formatting in AT that could be making this happen. 

I have been trying to brainstorm a way to report on all the orders in my Airtable system. I would like to be able to pull reports based on some time measurement (weeks, months, just today, etc.). The best way that I can think of is to have a script that creates a “week record” in another table and assign orders to a week. I would then use those week records to report on.This mostly works, but it feels very chunky. Are there any better ways of doing this?

I sometimes wonder why I still pay airtable money. For an application that claims to be good for time planning it’s mad it still doesn’t seem to be able to do time and date maths properly. I am in UK (so GMT/BST) - I want to have a date field and a separate time field, and to be able to combine these two into a calculated dateTimenothing I have tried seems to work reliably for this without jumping the date back to UTC Has anyone found a solution for what should be a trivial task?Thanks Richard

They seem to be permanent. Don’t see any “remove” option?

I’m planning an Airtable base for tracking search result data over time and would like to sanity-check the structure.The use case is keyword and competitor monitoring. An external API would return search results on a schedule, and I want to store each result with fields like query, search engine, date checked, position, title, URL, domain, and snippet.My first thought is to have one table for keywords and another table for SERP results, with each result linked back to the keyword record.For context, I work on TalorData, a Search API for SERP data, so I’m trying to understand the cleanest way people store recurring search result data in Airtable.For people who have built similar recurring data workflows, would you store each search result as a separate record, or store one full search result page as JSON in a single record?I’m leaning toward separate records because it seems easier to filter by domain, position, and date, but I’m not sure if that be

Hi,I want to create an interface for users with a list of records. There should be one button for all records where an automation runs if it is clicked. The automation behind the button is to mark all filtered fields so that they can copied to another table with another automation.How can I create this button?ThanksCordu

Hi!I need to track attendance for different cohorts put on throughout the year. Each cohort has multiple sessions and multiple attendees. When attendees are linked to a cohort, I would like to automatically create attendance records for every session linked to that cohort. Attendance statuses will be updated manually later. I am having trouble setting up the looping automation. I have never set one up before and I am getting stuck. Any help pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated! My base has the following tables:TABLE: CohortsFields:Cohort Name (primary field) Attendees (linked to attendee table) Sessions (linked to Cohort Sessions table) Session Record IDs (lookup field pulling Record ID from linked Sessions)TABLE: Cohort SessionsFields:Session Name (primary field) Linked Cohort (linked to Cohorts table) Record ID (formula field)T

Wanting the items in the chosen lookup to be actually added to the record. 

Hi,I currently use Airtable as an HR system. I’d like to build an admin dashboard to monitor data completeness, to help me spot fields that are never or seldom used. The objective is simple: try and keep the tables as simple as possible, avoid redundant and useless fields. Complex tables, likely mean complex UI, which likely mean bad user experience. I want to avoid that.I’ve done a bit of searching but impressively enough I didn’t find any recommended solution or best practice. One option is to put a bunch of calculated fields that tell me if another field is filled or not. I’d really like to avoid that.I’m curious to know how others do it.

Be careful updating field types!I have a few automations that watch a field for updates to set a field-last-updated timestamp. I discovered that if you change the field type of a watched field from multi-user to single-user, if there is data in the field, it will consider the field “updated” and trigger the automation.This is not documented anywhere that I could find!  And it messed up my timestamps 😑  

I have created an email automation thats pulling the information from our grid view. But how do I get this to go full screen as its only taking up the left side of the email.I have checked other email notification and it takes up the full screen but it looks like everything I’ve done is matched correctly. 

 Hi I am brand new to Airtables and have been looking around for a solution to this for a while but I have had no luck… I have two tables;One with Products which includes 2 different fields that display the royalty rates per product; “AU/NZ Rate”  and “ROW Rate”the Other table is a Sales Table and has a Region field that is either “AU/NZ” or ROW depending on where it was sold.How do I create a field that looks at Sales->Region and uses the value there to choose the value from  the corresponding field  in the Products table?  

I'm experiencing a persistent issue with my Salesforce sync and have followed the troubleshooting steps in the Airtable documentation without resolution. I'm hoping that someone can help me understand why I continue to get these errors! Could anyone help me identify whether this is a known pagination issue with the Salesforce Reports API integration, and whether there is a fix or configuration option on Airtable's side?The SyncThe sync source is a Salesforce Report, type "Leads,"​ in a standard tabular format, no groupings, summaries, matrices, or joined data. The only filter​s applied ​are​: Created Date after October 2020, Converted = False, and filters to limit Owners (segmenting by Department)​. ​The report is sorted by 18-digit Record ID.​ The Unique ID field is set to the native Salesforce 18-digit Record ID.  The Salesforce report contains 2,097 rows (confirmed via CSV export).

Hi, I’m being asked to reseach wether its possible to sync filenames and links to files in a Sharepoint document library to an Airtable project.  It need to only sync filenames NOT the actual data.  Does anyone know if this is feasible?Thanks
